Hi, thanks for your comments.

My car is a saab, so I'm okay with the dolly or the trailer. I'll see if I can petition the cost lower from Penske. That was a good idea.

I do have a cell phone, just not the fancy kind with internet. That's why I was thinking of a cb, so I could hear about any problems on the road.

Are there best times to travel/drive? Or on a trip like this it doesn't make a difference?
